Sour Cream Banana Nut Muffins – moist and fluffy banana muffins with nuts. These are just as good as the ones as your favorite coffee shop!
I made these Sour Cream Banana Nut Muffins while the kids were at school and most of them were gone by the time they went to bed. They were a hit with everyone in the house!
They are really yummy and really easy! The sour cream keeps them moist and the nuts give them a nice crunch.
I highly recommend making them if you ever have a bunch of super ripe bananas hanging out on your counter!
I also have a Banana Muffins with Nutella Swirl recipe that is always popular when I make it!

Can You Freeze Banana Muffins
Yes, you can definitely freeze banana muffins! They are fine in the freezer for up to 3 months.
If you think you will eat them within a month, they should be fine in a freezer ziploc bag, just make sure to squeeze out as much air as possible.
If you need them to be frozen the full 3 months, I would wrap them first in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and then place them in a freezer ziploc bag. Just to protect them from freezer burn.
When you are ready to serve the muffins, just let them defrost on the counter overnight.
